I am having the same issue with the ESPN and MSNBC apps on my phone. I am no longer authorized to watch either since Dish is incapable of validating my account.

Unless you criticize him, then it's insta-ban.

True, but having no way to get issues resolved for almost a week (so far) certainly won't help Dish Network churn numbers, not to mention installs and upgrades that can't be completed. Also lost PPV revenue. And a public relations / marketing black eye, esp. if it turns out there was a private...

I dunno ... maybe there should be a little fear. A six day outage for any customer service / billing seems unprecedented.

What's the difference? In my case I need to get a "hit" sent to a receiver that had been unplugged for a while. I guess that won't be happening for a while. :rolleyes:

I am looking to streamline by Dish package a bit. On MyDish I was able to get rid of the Dish Movie Pack and save $10 a month (my wife and I barely watch it). I was also going to drop Multi-Sport, or at least try to drop it and see if I am offered a deal to keep it. However since this weekend...

They were hoping you didn't notice. :happydance

After an hour on the phone, then another hour waiting for the mydish support chat queue, I find out that losing ESPN channels / Disney channels / local ABC for an unknown period of time is worth $5. At least the chat rep let me know that they are hoping to have the channels back by the end of...

Perhaps the contract will be backdated dated to 10/1 whenever it is signed, but I highly doubt Dish would pay Disney for channels that they were not allowed to broadcast.

Like has been said here, Dish is making money on this dispute because they surely pay more than $5 a month for the ESPN / Disney / FX channels (and the O&O ABC that I lost as well). And they make even from those that don't ask for a refund for channels they are paying for but no longer get.

I gave them a day. I'm asking for a discount now. Why should I be paying for channels I am no longer getting? And if their discount is $5 I will certainly keep that in mind the next time I compare providers.

I am in the Philadelphia market and ABC6 was pulled as well. Guessing all the ABC O&O stations are pulled (NYC, LA, etc.)

I told them (truthfully) that remote #1 was completely dead. They still were adamant that we had to go through all troubleshooting steps, including receiver reset, etc. They also kept bringing up Receiver #1 vs. Receiver #2, which was not applicable to my setup.

Update: I contacted Dish Support chat via Facebook, they quickly responded and sent me two new remotes free of charge since I have Dish Protect Silver. Thanks for those here who pointed me in the right direction. My only complaint now is why their Customer Support via their main phone number is...

Thanks for the info, I'll look into that. And note to admins - I read that the Dish DIRT team is no longer allowed to support their customers via satelliteguys, so you may want to remove the "Our DISH Forum also features AWARD WINNING support from the DISH Internet Response Team! (DIRT)" from...

Hi, first post in quite a while. I have two remotes for a 211Z and a 211K that have become troublesome. The first remote stopped functioning altoghether, even with a fresh set of batteries. None of the lit buttons would work, and of course it would not control the receiver. I actually threw this...

...with the same symptoms as noted above. When I connect that EHD to a 211k on my account everything plays back OK, but those same recordings will *not* play back OK when connected to my new 211z. I would just swap the two receivers, but the 211k EHD has issues when connected to the 211z...

One of my 211s also just had the HDMI port go out, but my TV has a component input as well so I can switch to that. I've had this 211 for several years and I don't even recall if this receiver is "leased" or "owned" and if that makes any difference in getting a replacement from Dish. How...

I didn't check during football season, but now during basketball once again the Alt channels are never utilized. I've also noticed that in the past the national PAC 12 channel would occasionally mention games carried on a regional channel, but they never do that anymore. Sometimes those...

ESPN paid way too much for the NBA, paid way too much (more than any other channel) for crappy Monday Night Football games, and also overpaid for most other big time pro and college sports. They overpaid because they thought they could just continually pass the costs onto cable/sat companies...

What's a Hopper? :) I feel so old-school with my 722K and 211s (each with an EHD). And I don't get on here much either, just dropped by to find out about the NBC/Comcast dustup.

...they used to use them on occasion for overflow basketball games but I noticed this year they were never used. Did you mean to say Dish does *not* have the regional channels? My guess is Dish decided to save some $$ by cutting access to the regional channels on the internet, and I wouldn't...

If my wife loses Bravo and the Real Housewives series it may be the end of the world for me. :)

I'll take the Pac-12 Network on Dish over a few DTV RSNs I can't watch anyways.
